Joey White, well he ain't got no choices
E MajorE       B7B7      E MajorE        B7B7
Just like his daddy did, he joins the armed forces
E MajorE     B7B7  E MajorE    B7B7
Gonna be a man, oh not a zero
E MajorE     B7B7  E MajorE        B7B7
For Uncle Sam, well he'll be a hero

He don't know that Uncle Sam is a cartoon and not a man
        E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE B7B7
Poor Joey White

E MajorE    B7B7   E MajorE          B7B7
Oh Joey White, you better bite your tongue
E MajorE       B7B7
You don't know jack, boy
    E MajorE        B7B7
You're young, dumb and full of cum
E MajorE       B7B7  E MajorE      B7B7
Better step in line, go with the others
E MajorE        B7B7         E MajorE        B7B7
Gonna fight for freedom, son, your country and your brothers
A minorAm
Here's your boots and here's a gun

Learn when to fight, learn when to run
        E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE B7B7
Poor Joey White

      A minorAm
Well he got two years in the sand,
                      E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE B7B7
And it will surely change his plans for life

E MajorE  B7B7   E MajorE        B7B7
Joey White, well he gets his orders
E MajorE     B7B7        E MajorE        B7B7
Grab your things and we'll meet you at the border
E MajorE    B7B7  E MajorE     B7B7
Kill 'em all, no quarter given
E MajorE    B7B7       E MajorE        B7B7
Shoot on sight, boy, let God sort out the livin'
A minorAm
Told ya no one's keeping score

This ain't no game, well this is war
       E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE B7B7
For Joey White

      A minorAm
Yeah, from below and from the sky

Hear drums and bullets fly
   B7B7
Oh a scream of battle cry

Bodies burn and brothers die
        E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE B7B7 (strum hard)
Poor Joey White

E MajorE  B7B7   E MajorE          B7B7
Joey White, well you better run faster
E MajorE       B7B7       E~
You can't run fast enough to avoid this grave disaster
E MajorE     B7B7  E MajorE        B7B7
Well in a flash blood soaks his shirt
E MajorE      B7B7       E MajorE        B7B7
Drops to his knees, now he's face down in the dirt
A minorAm
Now his only freedom blurred
                      E MajorE B7B7 E MajorE B7B7
Gets to leave this Hell on Earth still alive

A minorAm
Now his heart's filled up with lead

He got demons in his head
    E~
For life
